Last updated: 30 October 2025

Listen, I know why you’re here. Your 10bet withdrawal is stuck on “pending” since yesterday, or worse – it got declined and you don’t know why. You’re sitting there thinking “Where’s my bloody money?”

You’re not alone, boet. Every single day, hundreds of South Africans are asking the same questions on Facebook:

• “Why can’t I withdraw from 10bet?”
• “How long does 10bet withdrawal take to Capitec?”
• “My 10bet withdrawal was declined – what now?”

This isn’t another useless guide with generic advice. This is everything I’ve learned from solving real withdrawal problems for real players – from Joburg to Cape Town, from R300 eWallet issues to R500,000 OZOW transfers that went missing.

What you’ll get here:

• Why your withdrawal got declined (and the exact fix)
• All 13 withdrawal methods that work in SA right now
• Real processing times (not the “instant” BS they advertise)
• How to get cash in your hand TODAY
• Every problem, every solution

Let’s sort this out.

The Real Comparison Table

Need cash urgently (under R3,000):

Big wins (R50,000+):

Common OZOW Problems & Solutions

   • Check your bank app for pending transactions
   • Wait full 24 hours before panicking
   • Contact your bank: “Expecting OZOW payment”
3. Weekend withdrawal? → Probably arriving Monday morning

Problem 3: “Bank error message”

Advantages vs Disadvantages

✅ Advantages:

   • Perfect if you don’t know your account number
2. Fast processing
   • 2-6 hours typically
   • RTC supported
3. High security
   • PCI-DSS compliance
   • Tokenization
   • 3D Secure (sometimes)
4. Convenient
   • Money goes straight to card

My recommendation:

• Use PaytoCard only if you really don’t want to use account number
• Good as backup if OZOW has issues

4️⃣ Instant Cash Withdrawals (No Bank Account Needed)

These are game-changers if you don’t have a bank account, or need cash FAST.

4.1 FNB eWallet – The Classic

FNB eWallet is one of the most popular cashless withdrawal methods in South Africa. You don’t need an FNB account – anyone can use it.

What is FNB eWallet?

The concept:

• FNB’s cardless cash system

• Or withdraw at retail partners (Shoprite, Pick n Pay, etc.)
• Alternative: Use USSD (120277#) if SMS fails

Why it’s brilliant:

• NO FNB account needed
• Just need a South African cell number

Method 3: USSD Alternative (120277#)

• Can’t convert back to cash easily
• Limited to specific services
• R4,000 maximum

My take:

• Brilliant for small withdrawals if you need airtime/electricity
• Not a replacement for cash methods
• Use strategically (if you’re buying R200 airtime anyway, might as well withdraw as VAS)

5️⃣ Cryptocurrency Withdrawals

Crypto isn’t for everyone, but if you use it, 10bet supports four major cryptocurrencies.

Overview of Crypto Methods

Why Withdraw in Crypto?

Advantages:

• 🌐 International (can send anywhere)
• 🔒 Privacy/anonymity
• ⚡ Often faster than banks
• 💰 Sometimes lower fees
• 📈 Can hold as investment

Disadvantages:

• 📉 Volatility (Bitcoin price changes constantly)
• 🧠 Need to understand crypto
• ⚠️ ONE mistake = lost forever
• 💳 Need a crypto wallet
• 🇿🇦 Need to convert to Rands eventually (unless you spend crypto)

General Requirements

What you need:

1. Cryptocurrency wallet (Luno, Binance, hardware wallet, etc.)
2. Correct wallet address for chosen crypto
3. Understanding of blockchain confirmations
4. Patience (crypto isn’t always instant)

⚠️ CRITICAL WARNING:

• One wrong character in wallet address = money lost FOREVER
• No customer support can help if you send to wrong address
• ALWAYS triple-check the address
• Start with small test amount first time

5.1 Bitcoin (BTC) – The Classic

Bitcoin is the original cryptocurrency. Slower and more expensive than newer options, but most widely accepted.

Bitcoin Specifications

⏱️ Time: Depends on network congestion

• Low fee: 30 min – several hours
• Normal fee: 10-30 minutes
• High fee: Next block (~10 min)

• High (priority): ~R200-R500+

🔗 Blockchain: Bitcoin network

How Bitcoin Fees Work

Important concept:

Bitcoin fees are NOT fixed. You choose how much to pay.

How it works:

• Higher fee = Higher priority
• Miners process high-fee transactions first
• Low fee = Might wait hours or even days
• Check current recommended fee at: mempool.space

My recommendation:

• Normal fee for regular withdrawals (10-30 min)
• High fee only if urgent
• Avoid low fee unless you can wait

Step-by-Step: Bitcoin Withdrawal

Before you start:

1. Have Bitcoin wallet ready (Luno recommended for SA)
2. Get your BTC wallet address
3. Triple-check the address

Process:

1. Login to 10bet
2. Go to “Withdraw”
3. Select “BTC” or “Bitcoin”
4. Enter amount
   • In BTC (e.g., 0.01 BTC)
   • Minimum: 0.0001 BTC
   • Maximum: 1 BTC
5. Enter your Bitcoin wallet address
   • ⚠️ CRITICAL: Check EVERY character
   • Use copy-paste (don’t type manually)
   • Verify first few and last few characters
   • Wrong address = lost forever
6. Confirm address belongs to you
   • Some platforms ask you to verify
   • Check it’s YOUR wallet address
7. Click “Continue”
8. Select fee/priority
   • Low/Normal/High
   • Higher = faster
9. Confirm withdrawal
10. Save Transaction ID (TXID)
    • You’ll need this to track

What happens next:

• 10bet processes (5-30 minutes)
• Transaction broadcast to Bitcoin network
• Miners include in block
• Confirmations accumulate
• Money arrives in your wallet

5.2 Ethereum (ETH) – Faster Alternative

Ethereum is faster than Bitcoin and has lower, more predictable fees.

Ethereum Specifications

⏱️ Time: 15 seconds – 5 minutes (usually 2-10 min)

💰 Limits: 0.005 ETH – 10 ETH

💳 10bet fees: Free

⛏️ Network fees: Variable

• More predictable confirmation times

Practical result:

• Usually 2-10 minutes total
• Rarely delays (unless network congestion)
• More consistent than Bitcoin

Step-by-Step: Ethereum Withdrawal

Process:

1. Navigate to “Withdraw”
2. Choose “ETH” or “Ethereum”
3. Enter amount (0.005 – 10 ETH)
4. Enter Ethereum wallet address

• Fee paid to Ethereum network
• Measured in “gwei”
• Varies based on network demand

When fees are high:

• Peak hours (US/Europe daytime)
• NFT drops or popular events
• Can spike to R500+

When fees are low:

• Weekends
• Late night (SA time)
• Usually R50-R150

Check current gas: etherscan.io/gastracker

5.3 Litecoin (LTC) – Fastest & Cheapest

Litecoin is my personal favorite for withdrawals. It’s fast, cheap, and reliable.

Litecoin Specifications

⏱️ Time: ~2.5 minutes (usually 5-20 min total)

💰 Limits: 0.1 LTC – 100 LTC

💳 10bet fees: Free

⛏️ Network fees: ~R15-R30 (almost always cheap!)

⚡ Blockchain: Litecoin

Why Litecoin is Optimal

Advantages:

• ✅ Very low fees (~R15 vs R100+ for BTC)
• ✅ Fast (2.5 min block time)
• ✅ Stable network
• ✅ Widely supported
• ✅ Less volatility than Bitcoin

Who it’s for:

• Crypto users who want speed
• Want to avoid high Bitcoin fees
• Converting to Rands anyway (volatility doesn’t matter)
• Need reliable transfers

Step-by-Step: Litecoin Withdrawal

Process:

1. Navigate to “Withdraw”
2. Choose “LTC” or “Litecoin”
3. Enter amount (0.1 – 100 LTC)
4. Enter Litecoin wallet address
   • ⚠️ Starts with “L” or “M” (Litecoin addresses)
   • NOT a Bitcoin address!
   • Must be LTC address
5. Confirm and Continue

Timeline:

• 10bet: 5-15 min
• Blockchain: 3-15 min
• Total: Usually 10-30 min

Litecoin vs Bitcoin vs Ethereum

My recommendation:

• Use Litecoin for withdrawals if you’re converting to Rands anyway
• Use Bitcoin only if you’re holding long-term
• Use Ethereum if you’re already in ETH ecosystem

5.4 Tether (USDT) – The Stablecoin

USDT is different – it’s a “stablecoin” pegged to the US Dollar. 1 USDT ≈ $1.

Tether Specifications

⏱️ Time: Varies by network (1-10 minutes)

💰 Limits: 10 USDT – 10,000 USDT

💳 10bet fees: Free

⛏️ Network fees: Depends on network choice

🔗 Available networks:

• ERC-20 (Ethereum network)
• TRC-20 (Tron network)

What is USDT (Tether)?

The concept:

• Stablecoin = pegged to US Dollar
• 1 USDT ≈ $1.00 (always)
• Doesn’t fluctuate like Bitcoin
• Backed by reserves (supposedly)

Why use it:

• Avoid crypto volatility
• Hold value in dollars
• Protect against Rand weakening
• Still crypto benefits (fast, borderless)

Two Networks: ERC-20 vs TRC-20

⚠️ CRITICALLY IMPORTANT:

USDT can be sent on TWO different networks. You MUST choose the right one for your wallet.

ERC-20 (Ethereum Network):

✅ Pros:

• More established
• Higher liquidity
• More widely supported
• More decentralized

❌ Cons:

• Higher fees (R50-R300)
• Slower (Ethereum speed)
• Gas fees vary wildly

TRC-20 (Tron Network):

✅ Pros:

• Very low fees (~R10-R30)
• Fast (1-3 minutes)
• Consistent fees
• Popular in SA

❌ Cons:

• Less decentralized
• Fewer exchanges support
• Relatively newer

⚠️ CRITICAL WARNING:

An ERC-20 address is NOT the same as a TRC-20 address!

• Sending ERC-20 to TRC-20 wallet = LOST FOREVER
• Sending TRC-20 to ERC-20 wallet = LOST FOREVER
• MUST match the network!

How to check:

• In your wallet (Binance/Luno), it shows: “USDT (ERC-20)” or “USDT (TRC-20)”
• The address format is different
• When depositing to your wallet, it asks which network

My recommendation:

• Use TRC-20 if your wallet supports it (lower fees, faster)
• Use ERC-20 only if TRC-20 not available

Step-by-Step: USDT Withdrawal

Critical first step: Identify your wallet network

1. Open your crypto wallet (Binance, Luno, etc.)
2. Find USDT deposit section
3. Check which network(s) supported:
   • Does it say “USDT (TRC-20)” or “USDT (ERC-20)” or both?
4. Choose network (TRC-20 recommended if available)
5. Copy the deposit address for that specific network

On 10bet:

1. Navigate to “Withdraw”
2. Choose “USDT” or “Tether”
3. Select network:
   • ERC-20 or TRC-20
   • MUST match your wallet!
4. Enter amount (10 – 10,000 USDT)
5. Enter wallet address
   • ⚠️ Make SURE it’s the address for the network you selected!
   • TRC-20 address if you selected TRC-20
   • ERC-20 address if you selected ERC-20
6. Confirm and Continue

Timeline:

• ERC-20: 5-15 minutes
• TRC-20: 1-5 minutes

When to Use USDT

Best for:

• 🛡️ Want stability (avoid BTC/ETH volatility)
• 💵 Prefer thinking in dollars
• 🇿🇦 Protection against Rand fluctuations
• 📊 Want to hold crypto value without price swings

Example scenario:

• You win R20,000 on 10bet
• Bitcoin is R1,000,000 per BTC right now
• You’re worried BTC might drop before you convert
• Withdraw as USDT instead
• Value stays ~$20,000 regardless of BTC price
• Convert to Rands when ready

5.5 Crypto Comparison Summary

My recommendations:

🥇 Best for fast withdrawal: Litecoin or USDT (TRC-20)

🥇 Best for low fees: Litecoin or USDT (TRC-20)

🥇 Best for stability: USDT (either network)

🥇 Best for holding: Bitcoin

For most South Africans withdrawing to convert to Rands:
→ Use Litecoin (fast, cheap, easy to convert on Luno)

6️⃣ Understanding RTC (Real-Time Clearing)

You’ll see “RTC” mentioned everywhere. Let me explain what it actually means and why it matters.

What is RTC?

RTC = Real-Time Clearing

Simple explanation:

• New South African payment system
• Transfers money between banks instantly
• Works 24/7/365 (including weekends and holidays)
• Alternative to old EFT (which took 1-3 business days)

Launched: PASA (Payments Association of South Africa) introduced it

Purpose: Make South Africa cashless and instant

How RTC Works

Traditional EFT (old way):

1. You send money Friday 3pm
2. Bank queues it for processing
3. Processes Monday morning
4. Arrives Monday afternoon
5. Total: 3 days

RTC (new way):

1. You send money Friday 3pm
2. Money transfers immediately
3. Arrives in 30 seconds – 2 hours
4. Total: Minutes to hours (anytime!)

The difference:

• Old EFT: Batch processing, business hours only
• RTC: Real-time, 24/7

Which Banks Support RTC?

✅ Full RTC support:

• Capitec – Yes
• FNB – Yes
• Standard Bank – Yes
• Nedbank – Yes
• ABSA – Yes
• TymeBank – Yes
• Discovery Bank – Yes
• Investec – Yes

Basically: All major South African banks support RTC.

RTC and 10bet Withdrawals

Which 10bet methods use RTC:

• ✅ OZOW Instant EFT
• ✅ walletdoc EFT
• ✅ TYME Bank by walletdoc
• ✅ PaytoCard

What this means:

• Withdrawals via these methods can arrive in 1 hour
• Works even on weekends (sometimes)
• Works at night
• Much faster than old 3-day EFT

But real talk:

• Advertised: “1 hour”
• Reality: 1-4 hours (weekdays)
• Weekends: Hit and miss (sometimes fast, sometimes Monday)

RTC Hours/Periods

There’s confusion about “RTC hours”

Truth: RTC technically runs 24/7

BUT: Speed varies:

Fastest (near-instant):

• Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm
• Banks fully staffed
• High transaction volume
• Systems optimized

Slower (but still same-day usually):

• Weekday evenings (5pm-10pm)
• Saturday mornings

Slowest (often next business day):

• Friday after 3pm
• Sundays
• Public holidays
• Late night (10pm-6am)

Why the variance?

• Some banks batch RTC payments during off-hours
• Fraud detection more cautious at night/weekends
• Manual reviews happen during business hours

How to Maximize RTC Speed

Best practices:

1. Withdraw weekday mornings (9am-12pm)
   • All systems running full speed
   • If issues arise, support available
   • Highest success rate for 1-hour arrival
2. Avoid Friday afternoons
   • After 3pm often becomes Monday arrival
   • Banks wind down for weekend
3. Avoid Sunday evenings
   • Least reliable time
   • Often delayed till Monday
4. Use supported bank
   • All major banks support RTC
   • But some process faster than others
   • Capitec and FNB generally fastest
5. Ensure account verified
   • Unverified accounts get manual review
   • Delays RTC processing

Pro tip: If you withdraw 10am on a Tuesday, your money will almost certainly arrive within 2 hours. That’s the sweet spot.

Why Your 10bet Withdrawal Gets Declined (And How to Fix It)

Right, so your withdrawal got rejected. Frustrating as hell, I know. But there’s always a reason. Let me walk you through the most common ones.

Reason #1: You Haven’t Done FICA Verification

This is the #1 reason for declined withdrawals.

10bet legally has to verify your identity before they can pay out. It’s not them being difficult — it’s South African law (FICA – Financial Intelligence Centre Act).

What you need to upload:

1. Your ID
   • Smart ID (both sides)
   • Or old ID book (main page)
   • Or passport (photo page)
   • Must be clear, all corners visible
2. Proof of address (not older than 3 months)
   • Municipal bill
   • Bank statement
   • Utility bill (Eskom, water)
   • Important: Must show your name and physical address
3. Proof of bank account
   • Bank statement with your name and account number visible
   • Or screenshot from your banking app showing account details

How to upload:

1. Log into 10bet
2. Go to “My Account” → “Verification” or “Documents”
3. Upload each document
4. Wait 24-48 hours (sometimes up to 72 hours)
5. Check your email for confirmation

Pro tip: Upload your documents BEFORE you try to withdraw. Saves you 2-3 days of waiting.

Reason #2: You Haven’t Met Wagering Requirements

This catches a lot of people out.

If you claimed a bonus (like the welcome bonus), you need to “wager” it a certain number of times before you can withdraw.

Example:

• You deposit R200
• You get R200 bonus
• Wagering requirement: 10x
• You need to bet: R200 × 10 = R2,000 before you can withdraw

How to check your wagering:

1. Log into 10bet
2. Go to “My Account” or “Bonuses”
3. Look for “Wagering Requirements” or “Bonus Progress”
4. You’ll see something like: “R1,200 / R2,000 wagered”

Quick fix:

• Complete the wagering (keep betting till 100%)
• Or cancel the bonus (you’ll lose the bonus money but can withdraw your deposit)

Reason #3: Wrong Bank Details

Ja, we’ve all been there. One wrong digit in your account number and the money goes nowhere.

What to check:

• Is your account number correct? (Check your bank app)
• Did you select the right bank?
• Is the account in YOUR name? (Must match your 10bet account name)

If you already submitted wrong details:

• Contact 10bet support IMMEDIATELY (the faster, the better)
• They might be able to cancel the transaction
• If money already sent to wrong account, it’s a mission to get back

Reason #4: You’re Trying to Withdraw to a Different Method

10bet (and most bookies) have a rule: Withdraw using the same method you deposited.

Example:

• You deposited with Capitec via OZOW
• You try to withdraw to FNB eWallet
• Result: Declined

Solution:

• Withdraw to Capitec (same method)
• If you really can’t use that method, contact support
• They might ask for extra verification

Reason #5: Your Account is Flagged for Review

Sometimes 10bet’s system flags accounts for manual review. This happens if:

• It’s your first withdrawal
• You’re withdrawing a large amount (R50,000+)
• You’ve had unusual betting patterns
• You’ve got multiple accounts (big no-no)

What to do:

• Check your email (10bet will explain why)
• Provide any documents they request
• Be patient (can take 24-72 hours)
• Contact support if no email after 48 hours

10bet Withdrawal Pending: What “Pending” Actually Means

You’ve requested your withdrawal. It says “Pending.” Now you’re sitting there refreshing like crazy.

Let me explain what’s actually happening.

The Stages of a Withdrawal:

1. Pending (First 15 minutes)

• 10bet is processing your request
• They’re checking: Do you have the funds? Is FICA done? Any bonus issues?
• Normal: Can take 5-15 minutes
• If longer: Something might be wrong

2. Approved/Processing (Next stage)

• 10bet approved it
• They’re sending money to payment provider (OZOW, eWallet, etc.)
• Normal: 10-30 minutes
• Status might change to “Processing” or stay “Pending”

3. Completed

• 10bet’s job is done
• Money sent to your bank/eWallet
• Now you’re waiting on them, not 10bet
• Bank EFT: 1-4 hours (RTC) or up to 24 hours
• eWallet: 2-30 minutes
• Crypto: Depends on network

How Long Should You Wait?

Before you panic:

When to Contact Support:

Contact them if:

• ✅ Pending for 24+ hours (any method)
• ✅ Status changed to “Declined” or “Failed”
• ✅ Money deducted from 10bet balance but no status update
• ✅ Status is “Completed” but money not in your account after:
  • 1 hour for eWallets
  • 6 hours for EFT (weekdays)
  • 48 hours for EFT (if requested on weekend)

Don’t panic if:

• ❌ It’s been 30 minutes
• ❌ You requested Friday evening (wait till Monday)
• ❌ It’s a public holiday
• ❌ You just uploaded FICA docs (wait 48 hours)

How to Withdraw from 10bet Without FICA

Short answer: You can’t. Not for your first withdrawal anyway.

Real talk: 10bet (like all legal bookies in SA) must verify your identity. It’s the law.

But let me explain the actual rules, because there’s some confusion out there.

The Truth About FICA and Withdrawals:

What the law says:

• Withdrawals under R5,000: Basic verification required
• Withdrawals over R5,000: Full FICA required
• First-time withdrawals: Always need verification

What 10bet actually does:

• They usually require full FICA for ANY withdrawal
• Even R100 withdrawal = need FICA
• It’s their policy (they’re being extra careful)

Can you withdraw anything without FICA?

In my experience: No.

Some players report getting small withdrawals (R500-R1,000) through before verification, but:

• It’s rare
• It’s usually a glitch
• Your next withdrawal will definitely be blocked until you verify

The Fastest Way to Get FICA Done:

Timeline: 24-48 hours (if you do it right)

What you need:

1. Smart ID or ID book (photo)
2. Proof of address – not older than 3 months:
   • Bank statement
   • Municipal bill
   • Utility bill
3. Proof of bank account (bank statement or app screenshot)

How to do it fast:

Day 1 – Morning:

1. Take clear photos of all documents
   • Good lighting
   • All four corners visible
   • Text readable
   • No glare
2. Upload to 10bet (My Account → Verification)
3. Submit

Day 2 or 3:
4. Check email for confirmation
5. If approved, request your withdrawal
6. If declined, check email for reason and resubmit

Common rejection reasons:

• Blurry photo (use good camera, good light)
• Document too old (proof of address must be under 3 months)
• Name mismatch (name on 10bet must match your ID exactly)
• Cropped document (they need to see all corners)

My Advice:

Upload your FICA docs immediately after registering.

Don’t wait until you want to withdraw. Get it sorted now, while you’re not stressed about getting your money out.

Takes 10 minutes to upload. Saves you 2-3 days of frustration later.

10bet Withdrawal Problems and How to Fix Them (Real Solutions)

Let me walk you through every problem I’ve seen and how to actually fix it.

Problem: “I can’t withdraw to my Capitec account”

Possible reasons:

1. You’re trying the wrong method

• Don’t look for “Capitec withdrawal”
• Use OZOW or walletdoc EFT
• Select “Capitec” from the bank list

2. Your account number is wrong

• Check in Capitec app: More → My Bank Accounts
• It’s the account number, not your card number
• Usually 10 digits
• Double-check every digit

3. Account name doesn’t match

• 10bet account name must match your Capitec account name exactly
• If you used a nickname on 10bet, fix it in your profile first

4. You haven’t verified your bank account

• Upload bank statement or screenshot showing:
  • Your name
  • Your account number
  • Capitec logo/name

Fix:

• Go to 10bet → Verification
• Upload Capitec bank statement or app screenshot
• Wait 24 hours
• Try withdrawal again

Problem: “eWallet PIN never arrived”

This happens a lot. Here’s how to fix it:

Step 1: Basic checks (2 minutes)

• Check your SMS inbox
• Check spam/blocked messages
• Wait 15 minutes (sometimes delayed)
• Check you entered correct cell number in 10bet account

Step 2: Use USSD method (works 90% of the time)

• Dial 120277# on your phone
• Select eWallet option
• Use the PIN from when you requested the withdrawal
• Follow prompts to withdraw or transfer

Step 3: Request new PIN

• Contact 10bet support (chat or phone)
• Ask them to resend eWallet PIN
• Or cancel and create new withdrawal request

Step 4: Alternative method

• If eWallet keeps failing, use OZOW instead
• Same timeline, more reliable

Problem: “Withdrawal declined but no reason given”

What to do:

1. Check your email (10bet always sends explanation)
   • Check spam folder
   • Search for “10bet”
   • Look for “withdrawal” or “declined”
2. Check obvious issues:
   • FICA status (My Account → Verification)
   • Wagering requirements (My Account → Bonuses)
   • Account balance (enough funds?)
   • Withdrawal amount (within limits?)
3. Contact support with these details:
   • Username
   • Date and time of withdrawal request
   • Amount
   • Method chosen
   • Screenshot of declined message
4. Common fixes:
   • Upload missing FICA documents
   • Complete wagering requirements
   • Use different withdrawal method
   • Verify your payment method

Problem: “Money stuck on ‘Completed’ but not in my bank”

This is frustrating because 10bet says they’ve sent it, but you don’t have it.

What ‘Completed’ means:

• 10bet has sent the money
• It’s now with the payment provider (OZOW/bank/etc.)
• Problem is on their side, not 10bet’s

Timeframes to wait:

What to do after waiting:

1. Triple-check your bank details
   • Account number correct?
   • Right bank selected?
   • Account active and accepting payments?
2. Check with your bank
   • Call them: “I’m expecting an EFT from OZOW/10bet”
   • Ask: “Any pending incoming payments?”
   • Sometimes banks hold payments for verification
3. Contact 10bet support:
   • They can track the payment
   • They have transaction ID from payment provider
   • They can open investigation
4. Be patient (unfortunately):
   • If bank details wrong, money usually bounces back to 10bet in 3-7 days
   • 10bet will credit your account
   • Then you can try again with correct details

Problem: “Can I cancel a pending withdrawal?”

If status is “Pending”:

• YES, usually
• Contact support immediately
• They can cancel if not processed yet

If status is “Processing” or “Completed”:

• NO, too late
• Money already sent
• Can’t be stopped

Why you might want to cancel:

• Entered wrong bank details
• Want to use different method
• Want to keep playing (we’ve all been there)

10bet Withdrawal Limits (What They Don’t Tell You)

Let’s talk about limits. The official ones and the real ones.

Official Limits (From 10bet):

Real Limits (What Actually Happens):

Daily limits (unofficial but real):

• Most methods: No strict daily limit
• But withdrawals over R50,000 in one day may trigger manual review
• Multiple withdrawals same day (like 5× R10,000) = red flag

Weekly limits:

• No official limit
• But consistently withdrawing R100,000+ weekly = extra checks
• They want to make sure you’re not money laundering

Monthly limits:

• No official limit
• High rollers (R500,000+ monthly) sometimes get account manager assigned

First-time withdrawal limits:

• Officially: same as regular limits
• Reality: First withdrawals over R20,000 almost always get manual review
• Your first withdrawal will likely take longer than subsequent ones

How to Withdraw Large Amounts:

If you won R100,000+:

Option 1: Single large withdrawal

• Use walletdoc (R1 million limit)
• Expect 4-12 hour processing
• Manual review likely
• Have documents ready

Option 2: Multiple smaller withdrawals

• Split into 2-3 withdrawals
• Don’t do them all at once
• Space them out (e.g., one per day)
• Less likely to trigger long review

My recommendation for big wins:

• R50,000 or less: Single withdrawal, OZOW
• R50,000-R200,000: walletdoc, expect some delay
• R200,000+: Contact support first, they’ll guide you

They might ask for:

• Source of funds
• Extra FICA documents
• Explanation of betting patterns
• Video verification call

Don’t panic — it’s normal for big withdrawals. They’re protecting both you and themselves.

Final Word

10bet isn’t perfect, but they’re legit. I’ve seen players successfully withdraw everything from R300 to R500,000+.

The key is:

• Know which method to use
• Get verified early
• Be patient
• Know how to solve common problems

You will get your money. Just follow the steps in this guide.
